All newly added dependents need verification Do you plan to add a dependent to your health coverage this Annual Enrollment? If you add someone who wasn’t identified as your eligible dependent in a previous audit, Aon Hewitt will request documentation to prove your dependent’s eligibility for benefits.
Ongoing verification process begins in July. To ensure that only eligible dependents enroll in health coverage and to lower the instances of fraud, ERS is working with Aon Hewitt to conduct ongoing dependent eligibility verification for the Texas Employees Group Benefits Program (GBP).
The current dependent eligibility audit is coming to an end.
